Just got a new Helmet, from HJC, that has an integrated internal Sun visor, really like it so far. It was about $215 from the dealer, in matte black, and I had to got to a 3XL. It's a modular full face which works with my glasses, and the mechanism for the retractable tinted visor is easy to use on top of the helmet. Wind noise is about normal compared to my old AGV full face modular, and I do wish the tint was a bit darker on the sunshield, but all in all, it's good enough and beats having to buy prescription sunglasses or switch out a tinted visor for a clear one after sunset. And, unlike my AGV, the chinbar doesn't rub on my chin and has a large easy to use latch for flipping up the front cover. The one think I don't like is the double D-ring chin strap, as my AGV had a quick release buckle, but I'll get use to the old fashioned system soon enough!!

I bought one of those last year and am pleased with it. The only negative is that the wind causes the button on top to rattle.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I bought one of these helmets, just arrived in the mail. What Bluetooth unit are you guys using, if any, and how does it perform?

I got mine for the dark visor. No BlueTooth.

I think I'm going to go with the unit from UClear. I've had this helmet for a while now, and I gotta say, you get what you pay for. I had to put the pinlock visor insert on it because it was constantly fogging up, the vents suck, I'm just not impressed with this lid.
